It’s our Christmas Fair on Wednesday afternoon from 2.30 and you can collect children from class at 2.30. Unaccompanied children will not be allowed into the Fair.

The ‘Friends’ are working hard to make sure this year’s Fair is as much fun as always and if you can help, it would be much appreciated.

They also still need donations of toys, in good condition, and anything new that could be used as a tombola prize. Talk to the staff in the school office if you can help, or leave your donations with them.

The Scholastic Book Fair has always been a part of our school Fair and this will be open to parents after school today (in Year 1) and again on Wednesday morning (9.00 am) in the school hall, if you would like to browse for Christmas presents without your children. The Fair will also be open on Wednesday afternoon.

The school receives a proportion of the profits in the form of new books for our class libraries and so, not only do you get a book or two, but the children also benefit from new books for their class libraries.

We are holding a special assembly/meeting for the parents of children in F1, F2, Year 1 and Year 2 at 2.30 on Friday, 10th January. Our new headteacher, Emily Norman, will be introducing herself and there will be a similar assembly for the parents of children in Year 3, 4, 5 and 6 on the following Friday.

Miss Walker started her maternity leave this week (although she seems to have been in school, and working, as much as she was before she went on leave!) We all wish her well and look forward to seeing both her and her new baby in the New Year.
